The Palestine Times 2 shekles12/11/2015 Special Edition: Jerusalem- our land For hundreds of years the Palestinian people have been living in Jerusalem. There are over 300,000 Palestinians living in Jerusalem and these people run most of the city markets and provide many shops for the tourists. The Israeli’s have already taken over much of our land. Families have been split up, people killed from rocket attacks and houses destroyed by the Israeli Army. Jerusalem should never belong to the Israel, instead they should give us over all of the land as a peace offering. The country of Palestine is much poorer than Israel so we should get the land to allow our people to prosper. We admit that we have treated Israel badly in the past but now they are stealing our land. Most Palestinian people are Muslim and one of the most holy sites for the Muslim people is mosque called ‘Dome on the Rock’. This mosque is in Jerusalem and our people must have access to this holy site. The Palestinian people have had enough bad things happen to them…it is time for Jerusalem to be ours!

The Israel Gazette 3 shekles12/11/15 Special Edition: Jerusalem our home Today’s special edition is brought to you to tell you about the reasons why Jerusalem rightfully should belong to the Israeli People. Most Israeli’s are Jewish and in Jerusalem is the most holy site for Jews to visit; the wailing wall. Hundreds of thousands of Jewish people visit Jerusalem to see the land which is so full of their history and to pray to God at the wailing wall. The Jewish people have always lived in Jerusalem and our holy scriptures and Prayers often mention the holy city of Jerusalem. It would be a crime against our religion for us not to own this land. The Jewish people have had an extremely troubled history. Over 6 million of our people were killed by Hitler and it is more important than ever before that we own our own land. There are already 450,000 Jewish people living in Jerusalem. We cannot let the Palestinian people take this land when they have already caused us so much pain already.
